Uploaded by NTDTV on Sep 6, 2010
Ash plumes erupt from Mount Sinabung in Indonesia, sending villagers again fleeing from their homes.
After four centuries - this is the four eruption in the newly awakened volcano.
At the safety perimeter six kilometers away, evacuees watch the spectacle unfold.
Officials monitor the volcano's activity at the Volcanology Center located at the mountain's base.
They hope it blows itself dormant.
[Surono, Head of Indonesia Volcanology Center]:
"I hope it will be the biggest release of energy so it will again decrease the activity of Mount Sinabung."
Evacuees take refuge in public facilities ordered by the president.
The government briefed them on the volcano -- showing them what's likely to happen -- while relieving their fears.
[Usaha Ginting, Farmer]:
"I feel relief now, before I saw the film about how to deal with eruptions and the different kinds of eruptions I felt afraid and was worried. I'm glad that I know more."
Some evacuated villagers did leave the camps early to return home to tend to their farms.
Indonesia lies on the so-called Pacific Rim of Fire, containing some 130 active and hundreds of inactive volcanoes.
